Re: What will it look like?
If the powers that be approve SD decryption, I suspect the requirements will be to refuse skipping or fast forwarding content (the commercials will need to be included just like the streaming apps) and anyone using HDHomeRUN ATSC 3 decrypted streams must also abide by the rules. Correct?

Re: Encryption
The DC ATSC 3 stations seem to have ruined the reception of ABC 7.1 for me.
odds are you have a local noise interference issue impacting VHF reception.
@cncb,
If you are close enough to the low power WDCN 3.0 transmitter in Merrifield, VA, the local interference could be a WDCN second ...

Re: Encryption
Do you see a possible scenario where we might lose read/edit/whatever-I-want access to recordings of unencrypted ATSC 3.0 channels?

Re: HDHomeRun 4K is Nextgen TV Certified
Not good enough. That box also needs a standard NTSC output for those still using CECBs.gtb wrote: Tue Sep 12, 2023 8:01 pm What the broadcasters have been recently pushing is the FCC subsidizes a cheap box that converts ATSC 3.0 to a HDMI output to support existing ATSC 1.0 only TV's and then everyone can go ATSC 3.0.
